Just 10.000 spectators, more than the half of them having travelled from Frankfurt, watched this first time home match of the Cologne Centurions, who were the definite Underdogs in this duel.
Though Cologne lead first by a field goal, Frankfurt stroke back and scored a touchdown in the first period. The second and third period was quite boring with Frankfurt controlling the game and scoring two more touchdowns in the last quarter. Short before the end, Cologne managed to score their first touchdown in their new arena, the "Rhein-Energie-Stadion" of Cologne.
